Exhibit 1 - Updated Citywide Retention Schedules.pdf — Corona City Council, March 18, 2026

HOW TO USE RETENTION SCHEDULES
©1995-2026 Gladwell Governmental Services, Inc. (909) 337-3516 - all rights reserved Do not duplicate or distribute without prior written permission A legend explaining the information presented in the retention schedule; please read this for an explanation of every column.

The specified retention period applies regardless of the media of the record: If a record is stored on paper and electronic format (a computer file on a hard drive), all electronic and paper records should be destroyed (or deleted / erased) after the specified period of time has elapsed and authorization to destroy has been obtained.

Copies or duplicates of records should never be retained longer than the prescribed period for the official (original) record, and drafts and copies should be destroyed as soon as they are no longer required.

The term “records” shall include all records as defined by the California Public Records Act.

STRUCTURE: CITY-WIDE, DEPARTMENTS & DIVISIONS
The City-wide retention schedule includes those records all departments have in common (e-mails, letters, memorandums, purchase orders, etc.). These records are NOT repeated in the Department retention schedule, unless that department is the Office of Record.

Each department has a separate retention schedule that describes the records that are unique to their department, or for which they are the Office of Record. The department retention schedules may be organized by Division within that Department. If a record is not listed in your department retention schedule, refer to the City-wide retention schedule, or look in the index to the schedules (provided after approval.)

BENEFITS
This retention schedule has been developed by Diane R. Gladwell, MMC, an expert in Municipal Government records, and will provide the City with the following benefits:
• Reduce administrative expenses, expedite procedures
• Free office space and computer storage space
• Reduce the cost of records storage – paper and electronic • Eliminate duplication of effort within the City
• Find records faster
• Determine what media should be used to store records
AUTHORIZATION TO DESTROY RECORDS (Paper or Electronic Records):

Destruction or deletion of an official (original) record that has exceeded its retention period (and has SUBSTANTIVE CONTENT) must be authorized prior to destruction or deletion. • If there is a minimum retention (“Minimum 2 years"), the destruction / deletion must be authorized before it is destroyed, as it is an official (original) record.

Copies, drafts, notes and non-records (or originals that do NOT have SUBSTANTIVE CONTENT) do NOT require authorization, and can be destroyed “When No Longer Required.” If there is NOT a minimum retention ("When No Longer Required"), it does NOT need to be authorized prior to destruction, as it is a preliminary draft, copy, or the Content is NOT Substantive.

On every page of the schedules (near the top, just under the column headings) are important instructions, including instructions regarding holds on destroying records. “Litigation, complaints, claims, public records act requests, audits and/or investigations suspend normal retention periods (retention resumes after settlement or resolution).”

RECORDS RETENTION SCHEDULE LEGEND
©1995 – 2026 Gladwell Governmental Services, Inc. (909) 337-3516 - all rights reserved Do not duplicate or distribute without prior written permission OFR (Office of Record): The department that keeps the Official (original or “record copy”) record for its retention period, then authorizes destruction.

Usually, it is the department that originates the record. The official (original) record may be the paper / hard copy version of the record; however the electronic record may be the official (original) record. See the “Destroy Paper after Imaged & QC’d” below for the Legal Requirements for the electronic record to be the official (original) record.

Records Description: The record series (a group of like records).

Non-Record: Documents, studies, books and pamphlets produced by outside agencies, preliminary drafts not retained in the ordinary course of business.

Retention/Disposition: Active (guideline): How long the file remains in the immediate office area Inactive (guideline): How long the file is in off-site storage, stored electronically in accordance with law (see below) Total Retention: The total number of years the record is retained For file folders containing documents with different retention timeframes, use the document with the longest retention time.

P = Permanent
Indefinite = No fixed or specified retention period; used for databases, because the data fields are interrelated and certain data may require minimum retention.

Vital? = Those records that are needed for basic operations in the event of a disaster.

Media Options (guideline) terms used in State law: Mag = Electronic Computer Magnetic Media (Hard drives, Networks, USB Drives, Cloud, etc.) Mfr = Microforms (aperture cards, microfilm, microfiche, or jackets) Ppr = Paper, Mylar, Linen, “Hard Copy”
OD = Optical Disk or other Unalterable Media which does not allow changes Scan / Import (guideline): “S” indicates the record should be scanned into the document imaging system; “I” indicates the record should be electronically imported into the document imaging system; “M” indicates the record was microfilmed
Destroy Paper after Imaged & QC’d (quality checked) / Trustworthy Electronic Record: “Yes” means the electronic record may serve as the OFFICIAL record (and the paper version may be destroyed, or the record may be electronically generated and never exist in paper format) IF (these are the legal requirements for the electronic record to serve as the official (original) record) the electronic record is also placed on Unalterable Media, Immutable Cloud Media, Optical Disk (OD), DVD-R, CD-R, Blue-ray-R, or WORM, or microfilmed) which is stored in a safe & separate location.

Employees are required to Quality Check (“QC’d”) both the images and the indexes, and ensure the electronic record contains all significant details from the original and be an adequate substitute for the original document for all purposes; other legal mandates may apply.

Retentions apply to the department that is NOT the Office of Record (OFR), or the "Lead Department". If you are the OFR, refer to your department retention schedule.

Retentions begin when the act is completed, and imply a full file folder (e.g. last document + 2 years), since destruction is normally performed by file folder.
